Jabawooki or wodeva won, yay for them but I was rooting for Status QUO jo, dem be my fellow residents... ah or well). Sha one way or the other I ended up on verastic's blog (www.verastic.com) and I started reading and reading and leaving comments and... shaa I decided ah wat da heck lemme go update my blog like a good blogger shd abi be ko?

Sooo... yes oh! SBreak came and now it's gone! I wished I went somewhere exotic like all these other ppl did but you know wat I did go somewhere better than all that foolish Jamaica, Florida, California and wot not trips they all went on. I got to be on a private island!! as in who can ask for more... why will I complain about that, infact you sef look at the picture, clearly my SBreak was better than anyone else's. I dare someone to say otherwise...



Now, what we have here is water *very important*
St.Louis cube sugar... Hmm a cup and spoon....
Oh and yes of course my garri is inside...

7 Hallehujah somebody!!

I said somebody shoutttt 7-meje hallelujahsss!... ah! I just can't shout ni so I need people to help me shoutttt!


God is good! He is awesome, the King of kings, Lord of lords, Almighty, the Everlasting, the I AM that I AM, my redeemer, my fortress, my counselor, unchanging, the Alpha and Omega, my beginning and my end, the anciemt of days... AHH I said I CAN'T SHOUT! most of all MY HEALER!

These past days have been dreadful, since wednesday I've been feeling weird but thursday night the devil decided he wanted to do his worse... as in fever skyrocket and went off the charts, head was pounding like ur pistel and mortal do when u'r making pounded yam, throat was hurting like a bishinta, I had to bundle myself oh...it was serious. I decided to take some medications tht night and went to sleep right after. Woke up an hr later (wtheck! 1hr of sleep in this kind of situation?) as I did, the devil decided I haven't had enuff torture ... my bones started to ache as if they were hammering them ni o.. could barely walk! I said a quick quiet prayer, called my mom, asked ppl to pray for me... I sha was able to get some med that night. Upon all the medication and all, homework(s) had to be done, so I stayed up doing my homework. I woke up late friday morning, infact I missed my 9am lecture, but had to get up to finish my homework for 12pm class... hmm in short b4 my 12pm class I was feeling brand new ni sha. As in I was fine oh! --- I said somebody give a wiper for the Lord!
Friday night, I came home (as spring break started.. but becuz I was too rich to go to Miami/California, I decided to go home where I don't gotta pay a fortune). Woke up satuurday with the worst feeling ever, I felt blahhh again... kia, I rebuked satan straight away took some motrin and tea, took a nap and can I just tell you that I am again doing fine! glory be to God. He is Awesome.

Other reasons to shout hallelujah:

Thursday night, while I was feeling like I was going to die... TBabes (close friend)called me, me I was still saying oh I'm going to use this opportunity to sulk for some attention, lirru did i know. She was crying (wtheck??!) I'm like abeg wat happened why u crying. She started mumbling...
I- what!?!
TBabes- I can't find my mum, she's not home.. I don't know where she is. OMG, what will I tell ppl in naij.. mogbe egba mi oo
I- wat do you mean u can't find ur mom
TBabes- I'm outside my apt, I've been calling th house and no answer.. I've been standing outside since, idk where she is.. I can't find my mommy, OMG she might need my help
I- okay! tbabes cool down, stop cryn...

ahh long story sha, after maybe callings, crying and alladat she called me back and said "Desiree, she's back o, *she laffs* ... so where was she?? "She went to TJMaxx" .. ehnn? did I not tell u?? how can ur mom be lost.. mchewww* Sha I thx God for safety for my friends and their family and mine! God is awesome!

Ehnn, another hallelujah for my babes (TBabe's lil sister) whose bday is tomorrow... she's going to be 18 yay! (aww, my lil is growing b4 my eyes and I'm super excited). I'm gonna drive to Boston tomorrow and celebrate with her, I'm so looking fwd to that. Updates will follow ... my spring break has been emmm interesting BUHAHAHA i've been doing some foolish *silly* stuffz, i'll blog about it later sha as time goes by.

Happy Sunday!!

P.S abeg pardon any shelling oh, try and take cover for any tiauns...

My Week Thus Far...

It's been an eventful week, classes are coming along I guess... Uh spring break cannot come soon enough, but I feel as if I'm coming down with something. I'm not sure what, but I do not feel good; my forehead is pounding, I have temp, my eyeballs feel warm/hot, my throat is irritating.. ugh I just feel awful, I don't wanna spend my sbreak sick or weak at all.
Speaking of which, I'd planned on going away to somewhere to spend this free time I am soon to be blessed with and well "owo polo'wo" right now in other words I'm too rich right now to afford the shege. Monday night, I and my other girl were trying to see where we can go, so she started looking for cheap a** tickets, meanwhile she'd been talking about South Carolina and how she wants to go with some other people to have fun in Mrtyle(sp) Beach... long story short she entered to search for ticket to go there, she made an offer (200 dollars/person) it got accepted! YIKES! it was only for jokes oh... at this point we were stuck with tickets we didn't plan on buying or shd I say planning on using to go to SC. I was freaking out as she was too, I called my uncle who recently moved there with his family but they didn't get back. I called everyone I knew I could asking if they knew anyone in SC to no luck at all. Unfortunately, we couldn't get a refund, transfer or deffer the tickets so we were stuck on going to SC, I'm still freaking out. I called the airline that they got the ticket from and after talking and much talking I got them to deffer the tickets for us, and get credit with them. Basically we now have a ticket credit with the airline and can use it to anywhere, but it has to be used within a year *PHEW!* That caused my a mini-heart attack. Sadly tho, we still don't have anything for spring break :( I guess I will be going home then if nothing pops up. Or maybe if our other plan works out we might go to MD again! *eww.. but better than nowhere*

Also during this wonderful week, one of the student's group I'm in had a program today based on Business/Work Ethics and Commercial Ethics... it was a debate forum type of thing, we had panels and alot of discussions about some controversial ads out there (Paris Hilton's Hardie's Burger, Axe commercial, Lipitor and some other ones) during the forum. I also found out during this that the people who makes AXE (that degrades women in my opinion) are the same people who makes DOVE (that promotes women's security and alladat).. interesting facts?
But we had a good turnout, it was fantastic. I'm so proud of the group and cannot wait till Regional Competition on April 1st :)

Later on today too, there was another open forum type of thing, it was about the Immigration raid that happened about a year ago near my school (New Bedford)... and basically I.C.E came into a factory and raided there, took all the people without papers including women who were breastfeeding.
Here is the video that was shown and discussed: (feel free to express your thoughts and feeling after watching this)

Another Week Is About To Start

Well, I didn't make it to church today but I got to listen to the most inspiring lyrics. I was touched by this lady's voice, Lara George a winner of West African Idol ... her single "Ijoba Orun" is a hit, it's hot! Her voice is on point as in ON POINT! I am very impressed with not only her voice, but also the message she is passing along to us, which is
... a reminder to all of us, that we're just strangers in this world, our home is not here. So while we struggle to make it here, let's not get carried away with all these earthly things but have in mind the heavenly thingss...
I hope you are as blessed as I was hearing this reminder. Happy Sunday Y'all!



BTW: I have uploaded the joint, take the time to listen to it and be blessed!

I'm In Love with a Woman!! ... with Chrisette!

she so effing cute, adorable just wanna pull on her cheeks :)

I''m feeling her vibe...



I love her album, "I Am" , if you don't have it yet try and cop one real quick!! I can't stop listening to "Golden"... for the past month or so now, I have made it my morning devotion and night devotion (aside from Gongo Aso- 9ice; who I'm currently crushing on). I remember the first time I heard this song, the words just had my total attention, I remember putting it on repeat throughout the whole weekend. And it seems as if each time I listen/hear "Golden", it's as if I'm just hearing those words for the first time... it has been a while since any music like this *genre* has had this much effect on me. I can actually say she is def my fav thus far this year... nobori else (again aside from my boo 9ice) can change my mind about that, they will have to really out do her before I can consider changin my opinion. Can I also mention how she has changed my mind about jazz?? yes yes I love the whole jazz vibe that's on her album.

Too much, I can't shout! *jor jor*

Just so for the record, she is sooo coming to sing at my wedding ... can I hear an AMEN! yes Lord.

And is it me or does she have a weird resemblance with Countess Vaughn?? Hmmm...
